Here's the version from the Weavers recording and Travelin' on with the Weavers Songbook:
BAY OF MEXICO
'Round that Bay of Mexico Way, O, Suziannah, Mexico is the place that I belong in, 'Round the Bay of Mexico.
Goodbye gals of Nassau town, Way, O, Suziannah, I'm bound away for the fishing ground. (Refrain)
When I am an old man bowed and bent, Way, O, Suziannah, Oh, never will I forget the happy hours I spent, Around the Bay of Mexico. (Refrain)
Goodbye Sally, goodbye Sue, Way, O, Suziannah, And you that are listening, goodbye, too, We're off to the Bay of Mexico. (Refrain)
